Its not a take, its how it is. Cover could have had two accounts that generated twice as much. The joint account was a big gamble and so far, objectively, its not paying up for them.
That is of course, from a purely financial view. They got a big goodwill from "saving" the twins and Fuwamoco is top tier as streamer.

Oh if only. So let me paint you a picture. You are medieval Jap retard and you dont ever write anything down, because writing is for nerds or something. But then you realize that maybe writing shit down might be a good idea. But making your own written language is too ahrd, so you literally steal chinese.

Thats the Kanji. The one where you have to learn about 2k words to even function. It literally means "Chinese characters". Alright, so far so good, but that was made for chinese language, not japanese and it has some problems.

Alright, time to fix this mess. Lets create a simpler, better alphabet. Instead of having a character for every word, you split it up by blocks. You know, like letters. But not by letters, because you are retarded, so you split it by bigrams. Okay, cool, but thats too many characters, so lets optimize. Lets just create those we need for our language. Thats hiragana. Its also the reason why japanese are so horrible at speaking english. They literally do not have "t". So they substitute it with "to" Thats where "noto thisu shitto again" comes from.

Okay, so our new language is absolute dogshit at adopting foreign words, but we like foreign words. Lets create a new alphabet that we will use exclusively to write down foreign language. Of course we will optimize it so it is well suited at that task, sounds good. No. Lets just literally copy the one we made earlier, but make it more edge with direct translation one to one for each character between them. Thats Katakana.

Alright, we are retarded, but we have both katakana and hiragana, so we can stop using that chinese shit, right? Well, actually, we cant. Because we created words that are written the same in both katakana and hiragana, but not in kanji. So we kinda need kanji to know what the fuck is written there.

And so they write with 3 different alphabets. At the same time. Its very common to see a sentence that has Kanji, katakana and hiragana characters at once. Pretty stupid, right. But not yet. Writing that on PC is fucking hard. So how about we make one more alphabet. Its called romaji and its literally western alphabet. Now we just need a good program that will take romanji input and transform it into mixture of Kanji, Katakana and Hiragana. Thats why you see words appearing from nothing when they type. They type it into that input program and it outputs mixture of those three languages. Also, when you make typo, its all fucked and you have to type everything again.

Thanks for attending my tedtalk.
